I always find those lists hard to read - just too much info. It’s hard to catch everything!

This has been a great year for new Star Trek stories

Jaccident ,

I can see Lower Decks maybe taking that award, unfortunately I don’t see SNW winning alone, and I strongly suspect Elizabeth Debicki will take the Best Actress Award.

@Dagwood222 Thanks for responding! I have been a professional writer for years. Here is a link you can read one of them for free! https://medium.com/flicks-tv-hound/star-trek-boldly-going-to-the-future-ef077616c47c?sk=d6fa6fcba9df65fc9a74b91c4a0bd7b3

I’m pretty well-versed in Star Trek lore, but it’s always nice to get another perspective. After reading the article I had a brain storm. Lucile Ball was [amazingly enough] a big wheel at Desilu and pushed for the second pilot. She must have liked the first one because it dared to have a smart woman in a position of power. I’m sure many other people have had that notion, and I think it’s funny that it took me so long to see the obvious.

How Star Trek Brought Back A Popular TNG Actress After 30 Years

@samus12345 @startrek I didn't see it either until the Memory Alpha entry for the episode listed her as there.

I wonder if it was a case where they didn't have the original actress and/or didn't really have any lines for her. So why put her up front and center to say nothing and then fans complain that everyone else in Nova Squadron was back and talking and she wasn't.

I have no real idea, just speculating.

I love having an entire live TV channel dedicated to re-runs of old Star Trek episodes

Ok so, I have a little Kodi setup which includes a live tv system hooked up to Pluto so I can grab a bunch of channels for free. Turns out, this includes not one, but two whole channels of just Star Trek!

The first one is mostly TNG and the original series, and the other one ("creatively" called More Star Trek) has mainly Voyager and Deep Space Nine. I like these because I don't even have to think about what episode to watch, and can just enjoy some Star Trek!

The only downside to this is well, ads lol

I use DisqueTV on my Plex Server to do this.

I used to run a plugin on my Kodi that would make TV-style channels based on the original airing channel, complete with EPG and everything.

However, it wouldn't let you add lists of shows and create channels that way. I never got around to making my version, but perhaps someone else has done the work since then.

Amidst Franchise Changes, Star Trek: Lower Decks' Mike McMahan Gave Us His Worried Perspective On The Show's Future

Pretty self-explanatory tl/dr: if you like the show, watch it (and get your friends onboard).

Paramount if you pull an Inside Job and kill LD I SWEAR I’m going to do some things. I don’t know what yet, but I’ll do them!

Damn I really do like the lemmy community more. On other social media aggregators, people are flipping the fuck out.

The more reasonable discourse about this article, on Lemmy is just healthier for everyone’s mental state.

That being said, I tend to agree this is a nothing burger and Leer Decks is likely fine for a few more years. It’s a low budget show and the writing is on point making a broad range of fans happy. I’ve heard this show has actually brought in a lot of new Trek fans too.

Rare Find: Lt. Uhura's Lost Singing Performance at Smithsonian!

Interesting discovery.

Having been there, it’s so strange to see her in that space and to recognize it even though it has changed so much. When she says “this must be an early version of the Smithsonian” I almost felt like I was time traveling back there with her.

The 40 best stand-alone TV episodes that can be watched on their own.

Kind of a funny theme for a list, but “City on the Edge of Forever” made it.

It’s a refitted Lamarr class, not an Intrepid class.

Yes, that is what I was saying…
